  Gwyn is on the phone saying she will come down to the police station. 
Curtis comes in and asks who was on the phone. She tells him it was Alex 
and then tells him Stacy is dead. At first he doesn't believe....

Tess is at the agency. Here's Jocelyn! She's been going over the contract 
from AE and tells Tess to get Clay to agree to some revisions. She says 
that's not an option. They discuss it some more and then Jacob comes in.
"Well, that's a fact, you must be real happy today, huh, Tess?"

At the police station, Alex, Ava and Charles are talking to Angie. 
Charles wants her to go home but she doesn't want to until the lab 
reports come back. Alex tries to say something but Ava ccuts him off and 
says she's staying too. The women talk about the shock of it all and 
about Stacy.
..."Yeah, sometimes, I think that's why Stacy and I had our problems. I 
envied her. I use to say, "I'm so glad I'm not a little miss 
goody-two-shoes" but I think I knew I couldn't be as open and honest I 
resented her because she was a grown-up and I was still a child."
Ang: "Are we going to have an Ava-bashing session?"
Ava apologizes about talking about herself. Ang tells her about the phone 
call and then breaks down. Ava holds her. The guys get the report and 
find there was enough poison to kill 50 people! "Charles, Stacy Forbes 
was murdered." They look toward the door as Buck walks in.

opening credits

Frankie and Bree are waking up. They joke a little and then she thanks 
him for "understanding" about not telling him about her family. She says 
she has to go home and check on her mother. He tells her that "Mom" can 
take care of herself. They kid about marriage and then they kiss.

Tess: "What are you talking about?"
Jacob: "You don't know? Tess, Stacy is dead!"
Tess is visibly shaken. Jocelyn asks about the cause of death and then 
comments about her being too young for a heart attack. Tess sits down, 
Jacob starts to leave to do some work and Tess takes offense in the way 
he was talking. She says they weren't friends but she didn't wish her 
dead. He reminds her of the skunk and what she said about Stacy. Tess 
wants to call Buck but Jacob tells her he's on his way to the station. He 
says the police want to talk to everyone and Jocelyn says that's only if 
they expect foul-play. Tess grabs her purse to leave and says Buck needs 
a friend about now. Jacob goes after her.

Buck is standing there at the door, Angie runs up to hug him. The guys 
decide it's Charles' job to tell Buck about the report. They join the 
others and tell them that it was murder. Everybody is shocked. Alex won't 
say what the substance is. Gwyn and Curtis come in. Buck accuses Curtis 
of killing Stacy and proceeds to beat him up.

Frankie and Bree are STILL in bed. He says he's free tomorrow and they 
can get married and make Bree's mother happy.(ha, ha) He reassures her 
that she's not responsible for her parents. She says she doesn't have a 
father, only s "sire". (She sounds like she's got a cold) "Nineteen years 
and not even a postcard!" She doesn't want to discuss it. (It sounds like 
a hit-and-run dad!) Bree thinks that her mother's drinking might have 
something to do with her fathers leaving.

Alex and Charles try to seperate Buck and Curtis, who says Buck did it 
because he saw how Buck "Man-handled" Stacy. Buck says Curtis has 
harassed Stacy since he got out Dunellen. Gwyn talks sense into them. 
Tess runs in, Buck says stay away, she gave Stacy nothing but grief. More 
arguing amd Charles threatens to lock them  both up. He tells everyone to 
leave. Jacob is still on Tess' case about previous threats toward Stacy.

Jocelyn is in the office and the secretary brings in the mail. She finds 
an envelop from Stacy. It's her last will and testament. She flashes back 
to a conversation with Stacy about wills. She looks at it and then leaves.

They're finally dressed and he asks if she's ever thought about finding 
her dad. Bree's negative, something about spitting in his face. As they 
start to leave, there's a newspaper outside the door with Stacy in the 
headlines. Frankie says he's gotta go because of Angie.

Jacob and Tess are still at it. Alex overhears and asks where she was 
last night. She's not amused. Alex says it's routine to question people 
who go around hating the victim out loud. Gwyn doesn't want Curtis 
talking without a lawyer but he says he doesn't need one. Curtis goes to 
sit down in a chair and finds Buck's bank card which he immediately pockets.
  Ava and Angie are leaving to plan memorial services and ask Gwyn to 
join them. Jocelyn comes and wants to talk to Alex in private. He has 
some sarcastic remarks. She hands him the will and tells him about 
someone being taken out of it. He turns and looks at Buck.......
